    Can't recommend highly enough for short stay

    Clean room, friendly staff, with quick access to the city center allowing us to explore local dining options easily.

    Could not be improved in any way without adding further information.

    A couple's great escape

    The place was immaculate and the breakfast was quite a feast with freshly cooked options. The staff went above and beyond, making sure our stay was as comfortable as could be, like we were family.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but for what you get, it's quite reasonable.

    modern decor
    naval history
    accessible design
    uncomfortable seating
    limited lounge space

    The blend of modern décor with subtle hints of naval history made the hotel feel quite luxurious. The common areas were not only beautiful but very accessible, which was a delight for someone like me.

    More comfortable seating options in common areas.

    cramped room
    malfunctioning shower gel

    Friendly and accommodating staff.

    I was disappointed by my stay in the cramped Deluxe Double Room. The shower gel dispensers didn't work, and the overall cleanliness left much to be desired. the fire alarm going off at 5:47 am was a jarring experience that overshadowed anything positive about the visit.

    delicious breakfast
    cold room
    spotty wi-fi

    The room looked lovely with beautiful decor, but it had some practical issues. We had a door that led straight outside, which had a gap at the bottom, making it super cold at night. The quilt was too small, which didn't help with staying warm. I complained and got a staff radiator for the second night, which was better. the bathroom window was frosted but made me feel exposed at night. Wi-Fi was spotty too, but the breakfast was delicious!

    tiny room

    Superb location, just a hop to the city centre! The room was clean and stylish, perfect for a quick getaway.

    The room was so tiny I thought it was a cupboard! And who needs dim lighting when you're dreaming of being at a spa?

    cosy hotel
    spacious room
    comfy bed
    low shower pressure

    We had a lovely time at this cosy hotel with a spacious double room and a big, comfy bed. There’s a nice lounge area for relaxing. A beautiful garden to unwind in. Our only hiccup was that the shower pressure could've been a bit better, but it didn't ruin our stay at all. 😊

    spacious family room
    gluten-free options
    chill bar area
    weak shower pressure

    Nice spot, comfy stay

    I had a pretty good time here. The family room was spacious with comfy beds. They even had gluten-free options for breakfast, which I really appreciated. The shower pressure was a bit weak for my hair, though. The bar area was chill, perfect for unwinding after a long day. The location was also super convenient, near The Hoe and the Barbican.

    quirky shower

    At The Drake, I experienced a delightful blend of historical charm and modern comfort. The staff's warmth made me feel at home, and the breakfast impressed with its variety. A minor issue with the shower setup added a quirky touch, but it didn't detract from my enjoyable stay.

    signage issue

    great experience but minor tweaks needed

    The room was stylishly decorated and equipped with all necessary amenities, enabling us to feel comfortable. The staff exhibited exceptional friendliness, going out of their way to assist us whenever needed.

    The parking area could use better signage for entry and exit points.

    The hotel's location is excellent, making it easy to explore the Barbican and seafront. Although the bed was a bit hard and there was a gap under the door, the breakfast was fantastic and the staff provided friendly service. a very pleasant experience.

    Enjoyed our night in a superior king room, especially appreciated the spaciousness and the cozy ambiance. The staff were friendly, but clearer parking directions would enhance the experience. Don't miss the local dining options. they added a delightful touch to our stay!

    inviting dining area
    noisy street
    older furniture
    room maintenance

    Reception staff provided exceptional service, making the stay quite pleasant. The breakfast was a highlight, featuring homemade biscuits, fresh fruit, and a well-cooked spread, all served in an inviting dining area. the room showed signs of needing an update, with older furniture and noise from the street disrupting sleep. some amenities could be improved to match the hotel’s charming decor.
